Nice one! That's exactly the same colour combo as mine.
Spotted that on the bay myself earlier. Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for the kind words chaps.
There's a volvo owners club sticker in the window so I'm guessing a previous owner may be on here somewhere any info from you would be great especially about the pull out switches under the dash.
I've started another thread full of my noobie questions re: amazons
all help gratefully accepted.lol

If you need an owner's manual for it, try HERE , in the "Documents" section, they're available as a downloadable PDF file. This brilliant site has kept me amused for hours.
Hope you enjoy your Amazon.
